• Boris sires 175 babies every year, bringing his total number of piglets to up to 600.

• He could produce 6,250 sausages, 112lbs of bacon – the equivalent of 3360 thin rashers of back and streaky bacon or 600 “good, thick rashers of back bacon from the loin” – 54lbs of chops, 72lbs of ham, 32lbs of shoulder.

• Boris eats almost nine lbs (4kg) of barley and wheat sour roll with minerals a day, split into two meals in the morning and afternoon.

• He also is allowed “the odd apple for a treat”.

• Boris loves to be tickled on his shoulder and if you move down his body to his stomach, he can be made to roll over.

• He sleeps, or "relaxes", for up to 20 hours every day.

• Boris loves to chase hosepipes around the farm yard, and like, any pig he loves a mud bath.

• Boris and Marjorie breed enough piglets every year to produce between £8000 and £10,000 worth of sausages.

• If sold alive Boris would fetch about £250 at auction but if he was killed, he could produce about 1000 packets of sausages worth around £3500.
